4.2 KiB
Evented I/O for V8 javascript.
To build:
Prerequisites (Unix only):
* GCC 4.2 or newer
* G++ 4.2 or newer
* Python 2.6 or 2.7
* GNU Make 3.81 or newer
* libexecinfo (FreeBSD and OpenBSD only)
Unix/Macintosh:
./configure
make
make install
If your python binary is in a non-standard location or has a non-standard name, run the following instead:
export PYTHON=/path/to/python
$PYTHON ./configure
make
make install
Prerequisites (Windows only):
* Python 2.6 or 2.7
* Visual Studio 2010 or 2012
Windows:
vcbuild nosign
You can download pre-built binaries for various operating systems from http://nodejs.org/download/. The Windows and OS X installers will prompt you for the location in which to install. The tarballs are self-contained; you can extract them to a local directory with:
tar xzf /path/to/node-<version>-<platform>-<arch>.tar.gz
Or system-wide with:
cd /usr/local && tar --strip-components 1 -xzf \
/path/to/node-<version>-<platform>-<arch>.tar.gz
To run the tests:
Unix/Macintosh:
make test
Windows:
vcbuild test
To build the documentation:
make doc
To read the documentation:
man doc/node.1
Intl (ECMA-402) support:
Intl support is not enabled by default.
"small" (English only) support
This option will build with "small" (English only) support, but
the full Intl (ECMA-402) APIs. With --download=all it will
download the ICU library as needed.
Unix/Macintosh:
./configure --with-intl=small-icu --download=all
Windows:
vcbuild small-icu download-all
The small-icu mode builds
with English-only data. You can add full data at runtime.
Note: more docs are on the wiki.
Build with full ICU support (all locales supported by ICU):
With the --download=all, this may download ICU if you don't
have an ICU in deps/icu.
Unix/Macintosh:
./configure --with-intl=full-icu --download=all
Windows:
vcbuild full-icu download-all
Build with no Intl support :-(
The Intl object will not be available.
This is the default at present, so this option is not normally needed.
Unix/Macintosh:
./configure --with-intl=none
Windows:
vcbuild intl-none
Use existing installed ICU (Unix/Macintosh only):
pkg-config --modversion icu-i18n && ./configure --with-intl=system-icu
Build with a specific ICU:
You can find other ICU releases at
the ICU homepage.
Download the file named something like icu4c-**##.#**-src.tgz (or
.zip).
Unix/Macintosh: from an already-unpacked ICU
./configure --with-intl=[small-icu,full-icu] --with-icu-source=/path/to/icu
Unix/Macintosh: from a local ICU tarball
./configure --with-intl=[small-icu,full-icu] --with-icu-source=/path/to/icu.tgz
Unix/Macintosh: from a tarball URL
./configure --with-intl=full-icu --with-icu-source=http://url/to/icu.tgz
Windows: first unpack latest ICU to deps/icu
icu4c-##.#-src.tgz (or .zip)
as deps/icu (You'll have: deps/icu/source/...)
vcbuild full-icu
